Is it not about time this barbaric “sport" was banned for good?
Another Boxer Dies.

There’s no rational way to discuss punching people to death for money.
It sure as f*ck ain’t no “noble art” in my eyes.

Then why start a discussion on something you think has no valid spot to discuss?
Whether you consider it rational or not, the hundreds of thousands of boxing participants would indicate there is a discussion there.

Can they not just wear headguards or softer gloves like you do as kids/amateurs. Would become more about point scoring rather than KOs though.

Well it would be a start, but there’s more money to be made glorifying in blood, serious injury and death.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
When has death been glorified?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No use crying after the event. No doubt boxing fans were cheering on the night when his brain literally got splattered all over the canvas.

Not a fan of horse racing. The other sports however you aren’t harming other people.
Boxing is literally harming another person with multiple heavy blows to the face and head. It’s barbaric.

Rugby and motorsports don't lead to others getting hurt?
So now ur argument has shifted to how violent it is as the death and hurt one doesn't stack up in comparison?
People have a choice
